Chapter 169 Grandma's Cooking
The barbecue stall was doing pretty good business; all the ingredients were sold out, including Luo Xianglian, who even left work early.
"I suggest that we find a good cook from the village to do the job of frying crayfish at night, so you guys don't have to do it!" Seeing the dark circles under the eyes of her family members, which were obviously from staying up late, Guoer couldn't help but suggest at the breakfast table.
My family has other things to do during the day, so it’s okay to do it occasionally, but my body definitely can’t stand staying up until 1 a.m. every day.
"The barbecue stall is different from the restaurant. There is a cash register system and surveillance there, and the inventory is counted every day. But here there is nothing, and we need our own family to look after it!" said Li Xuezhu.
"Is that easy? Can't we just use the same system? The ingredients and seasonings used for the barbecue are all produced by ourselves. We know everything, except for the charcoal that needs to be purchased! It's just a matter of spending a little more money and hiring one more person! You don't have to stay up so late." Guoer said.
I really don’t want them to stay up late, it’s bad for their health. The family is not short of this little money, so there is no need to work so hard!
"Guo'er is right, especially Xianglian. Don't you see how old you are? You are not young anymore. You can't keep going like this. You are the pillar of our family. What will happen to our whole family if you ruin your health?" Li Gensheng advised earnestly.
I know his wife is strong-willed, but she can’t ruin her health for money. It’s not worth it. It’s enough as long as she has enough money!
"Okay, let's do as Guo'er says. I'll go buy a laptop today!"
After listening to what his daughter and his father said, Li Xuezhu also felt that it made sense. Their family was going to practice Taoism in the future, and they couldn't ruin their bodies for money. If it affected their future practice, it would be a waste of time and effort.
The family decided on this, and this morning the three little sisters did not have dinner with Guoer's family, but went to accompany their parents.
"What are you planning to eat for lunch? Do your sisters' parents have any dietary restrictions? Why don't you give them a call and ask?" Zhou Ruolan looked at Guo'er and asked.
In the afternoon, my daughter's sisters and their large group will leave, and we plan to invite their parents to our home for lunch at noon.
The girls get along well and are as close as sisters. When their parents come here to visit, they have to treat them to a meal!
"Whatever you eat, listen to mom. Mom is the chef! I'll call them and ask later!"
Guo'er really doesn't know what dietary restrictions there are, so she can only ask Xu Feiyu and the others.
After dinner, the family members went their separate ways to do their work. Li Gensheng went to the clinic, Li Xuezhu went to the city to buy a computer, and Guoer and the other two ladies went to the vineyard together as it was time for it to open.
After another three hours of busy work, the three of them walked home refreshed.
"You know what, this constant temperature array is really great. Look, I don't feel too hot even under such a scorching sun! Unlike yesterday, when I felt like a dehydrated fish!" The three ladies of the Li family linked their arms and Zhou Ruolan shared as they walked.
"I made it specially for you yesterday so that you wouldn't get too hot!" Guoer also said.
She experimented for a long time in the space last night before she engraved the constant temperature array on the jade plate. In the morning, she hung one on the clothes of each of her family members so that they would not be too hot no matter what they did in such a hot summer.
"My granddaughter is so beautiful and filial, and you are the only one who always cares about us relatives!" Luo Xianglian praised.
She is not bragging, her granddaughter is really a caring little fairy who cannot be more caring.
Look, who wouldn’t envy her for having such a well-behaved and caring granddaughter?
"It doesn't matter who gave birth to her. For someone as smart as me to give birth to such a good daughter is really amazing!" Zhou Ruolan said proudly.
Luo Xianglian rolled her eyes to the sky. If she hadn't raised the child and hadn't been so reluctant to hit him, she would have become a wicked mother-in-law. Of course she would let such a good child do what she wanted!
The two were secretly fighting each other when Luo Youfa came looking for them!
"Aunt, Ruolan, Guoer!" Luo Youfa was the first to greet them.
"Did it arrive? How come you're here in such hot weather?" Luo Xianglian has always been very concerned about this nephew whom she has raised since he was a child!
"Aunt, I came to ask Guoer something!" Luo Youfa said.
"What does my cousin want to talk to me about?" Guoer asked curiously.
"These past two days, tourists have bought up all the chickens, ducks, geese, vegetables, and wild delicacies in the village. Do you think it's feasible for us villagers to vigorously develop the animal husbandry and planting industries?"
Luo Youfa told Guoer why he came to see her.
"Of course it's possible, but there are prerequisites." Guo'er said readily.
"What are the conditions? Is it easy to do?" After hearing Guo'er say that it was possible, Luo Youfa asked hurriedly.
"It's easy to do. Tourists like the poultry, livestock and vegetables in the village because they are all raised and grown in the local soil, unlike those in the city. So if you want to do it, you have to ensure large-scale planting. The quality after breeding cannot be lower than the current level. If you use feed, chemical fertilizers and pesticides, then don't do it. Not only will it damage the reputation of Lijia Village, but tourists will not buy it!" Guoer said all this in an orderly manner.
Luo Youfa thought carefully about Guoer's words and felt that it was true what Guoer said.
"Then we will strictly follow what you said! Anyone who dares to mess up, destroy the collective reputation of Lijia Village, then he can forget about making money in Lijia Village! The reputation of Lijia Village is above all else!" Luo Youfa spoke with such confidence, and it was also the confidence given by Han Zhengyang.
Han Zhengyang asked their village to follow Guoer's family's footsteps and run a good homestay, and gave them many green lights as a pilot project.
If there are people with bad intentions and who want to cause trouble, the village committee will definitely not let them go, not to mention that the municipal party committee will back them up.
Luo Youfa was full of confidence and even issued a military order to Han Zhengyang.
"The soil and water in our Lijia Village will only get better and better in the future. As long as we don't mess around, the food we grow and raise in our village may not be as good as what I grow at home, but it's definitely better than what's on the market! It grows well and doesn't get sick easily."
Seeing that Luo Youfa was so confident, Guo'er didn't mind giving him a hint to give him more confidence and let him go ahead and do it!
"Hearing your words, I have more confidence to lead our Lijia Village towards prosperity!"
Luo Youfa never imagined that the big move Guoer mentioned last time was to improve the soil and water in Lijia Village, which was not something an ordinary person could do.
"How's the construction of my cousin's house going? How long will it take to be completed? Can it be completed in time for the National Day?" After talking about the village affairs, Guoer brought up his family affairs again.
"The construction team has added a lot of people to rush the work these days. I guess we won't be able to catch up. After all, it's only a little over a month away from the National Day!" Luo Youfa said with some regret, and thus missed the peak tourist season.
